Amazon!

It's beginning to look like an Amazon Christmas... I will do ANYTHING to not step in a mall this year! I've had nothing but great luck with Amazon, easy to search, flawless... works for me!

Trivia from WIKIPEDIA: Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ: AMZN) is a US-based multinational electronic commerce company. Headquartered in Seattle, Washington, it is America's largest online retailer, with nearly three times the Internet sales revenue of the runner up, Staples, Inc., as of January 2010.[3]

Jeff Bezos founded Amazon.com, Inc. in 1994 and launched it online in 1995. The company was originally named Cadabra, Inc., but the name was changed when it was discovered that people sometimes heard the name as "Cadaver." The name Amazon.com was chosen because the Amazon River is the largest river in the world, and so the name suggests large size, and also in part because it starts with 'A' and therefore would show up near the beginning of alphabetical lists. Amazon.com started as an online bookstore, but soon diversified, selling DVDs, CDs, MP3 downloads, computer software, video games, electronics, apparel, furniture, food, and toys. Amazon has established separate websites in Canada, the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Italy, Japan, and China. It also provides international shipping to certain countries for some of its products. A 2009 survey found that Amazon was the UK's favorite music and video retailer, and third overall retailer.[4]

I cherish staying in touch with people...I don't like to ever loose communication with anyone! I feel fortunate to love my work and career! I always want something "cooking". You'll always find a candle burning and music on in my house ~ and you are always welcomed here! I hate to clean my house...but want it clean! LOVE...LOVE our dog (Reilly)~ she's the best!

Favorite Humanitarians...

Bono..."The Church has its problems, but the older I get, the more comfort I find there"

Jimmy Carter..."We must adjust to changing times and still hold to unchanging principles"

Audrey Hepburn..."For attractive lips, speak words of kindness. For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people. For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry. For poise, walk with the knowledge that you never walk alone. People, even more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed, and redeemed. Never throw out anyone. Remember, if you need a helping hand, you will find one at the end of each of your arms."

Robert Kennedy..."I believe that, as long as there is plenty, poverty is evil".
